About this Article

The brother and a longtime friend of a woman shot and killed last year in Oak Brook by her ex-boyfriend are supporting a lawsuit filed Wednesday at an online classified ad site the man used to find his murder weapon. "It makes me angry that some murderous guy would just go and buy a gun on the Internet," said Alex Vesely, brother of victim Jikta Vesel.
